1 DH made it to Heathrow without forgetting anything important.
2 DH finished his conference presentation slide show just in time to leave for Heathrow!
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

Are they happy because you're going out tonight?  "Yay, Mom's out of the house...!"

Heh, more likely no - one of them was babysitting and the other was in bed ;) BUT! Mom was DEFINITELY thinking, "Yay! Mom's out of the house!!" ;D


So far today:

1. massive hangover averted
2. Nicholas' funny stumble towards our room in the morning when he wakes up.
I know I'm late - where's the booze?

1.  Got our grocery shopping done early this morning at Sainsbury and got a taxi home!

2.  Bought some lovely wine and a nice bottle of brandy to make mulled wine later!

Birthday pressies
Birthday cake! 
Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; the snow melts before its doors as early in the spring. Cultivate property like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn the old; return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts…

1)  I've been cracking on, making progress with power cleaning and reclaiming my house!

2)  I just love how good our puppy is.  She's only five months old and is such a pleasure to be around.

1. Not being hungover
2. A renewed feeling of love for my husband.  Sometimes feelings like this hit me once in a while.  :)

1)  Getting a somewhat tricky fiancee visa approved in two days, when I really thought there was going to be problems

2)  Dan got offered a job!  And a really, really good one too!  After three months of looking!  Which means that we may ACTUALLY be moving in together before the spring!  Yippeee!!!!!

 ;D

1. We finally have gifts under the tree so it really is starting to feel like Christmas, gotta love the late shopping.

2. DH and I made a pact that all our shopping next year will be done online! (Half was done online this year)  ;D
